The Office for Students in Transition (SIT) provides many programs and services designed to help first year students with their transition into the UMD community. We work with students to help them achieve academic, social and personal success.

If you have a question or concern, and you do not know where else to go, stop by our office, give us a call or send us an email. We will answer your question, address your concern, or point you to the right person or office who can!
